I just made a tongue and wheel kit so I can connect my engine lift to my Cub Cadet and move engines around in the back yard. I posted more pictures and information above in the TECH section under HOMEMADE TOOLS.

Originally posted by pAAt View PostTom, are you hauling logs with that ?
The storm last week blew down a tree in the back yard, and this could haul the logs away.
Now I need to make a giant tongs to grab the logs.

This is by far the best design for a shift lever spring remover tools, and it's not too hard to make.
Vince posted a picture of this style years ago, and I like it better than my first 2 designs, so this is the one I use all the time...-

Here are some pictures of the homemade distributor tester I made several years ago. I mainly built it to check distributor cams. On the inside of the cabinet I store a dial indicator and degree wheel that I use to check the cam opening, lift, and closing.

Having an engine stand makes storing and transporting Model A engines much easier and safer than using an old tire.
I cut four pieces of 2 x 6 seventeen inches long, and four pieces of 2 x 6 eight and a half inches long.
I used four #8 x 2 1/2" square drive screws to fasten each vertical board to the horizontal board.
I used only 2 screws on each end of the bottom boards to...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

by old31Mitch, I hope this wasn't your garage? If it was, I bet he didn't last long enough to put the car down.
